His supporters for Imran Khan’s poster
Islamabad: An important decision regarding former Prime Minister Imran Khan, who is jailed in Pakistan, is coming on 12 August. The Supreme Court will start hearing again on the appeals filed against not getting bail in cases related to the violence of May 9. The media reported about this on Sunday.
Bail was not received from High Court
According to the news of the ‘Dawn’ newspaper, according to various appeals filed by the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) head, the Lahore High Court (LHC) refused to grant him after arrest in eight cases related to the violence that erupted after the arrest of Khan from Islamabad High Court premises on May 9, 2023. The LHC on May 9 dismissed his bail, citing Khan’s alleged role in planning attacks on military establishments in fear of his arrest.
Hearing will be held on Tuesday
The Supreme Court postponed the hearing on July 29 at the request of the defense counsel, who said that Chief Counsel Salman Safdar is abroad. According to the news, a three -judge bench of the apex court headed by Pakistan Chief Justice (CJP) Yahya Afridi will hear the case on Tuesday, including Justice Muhammad Shafi Siddiqui and Justice Miangul Hasan Aurangzeb. Khan (72) has several cases registered in Lahore in connection with the violence of May 9, including a case of allegedly abusing his supporters to attack government and military buildings.
